I know I have anxiety, but lately it has been quite manageable.
My worries lately are minor chest pains (quite rare but still there on a scale of 1 to 10 I'd say 1-2), they are usually in different places each time and I can also pin point the location. Upper back pain (I did mention this to doctor and he said could be posture related). Strong pulse (I mentioned this to my doctor he checked my stomach as I was worried about AAA and he said was fine). Fast pulse (Never gets below 80 although I am aware resting HR should be when you first wake up rather than if you've just sat about for a while.
I am also worried that little activity causes my heart to feel as though it is pounding, even walking up the stairs causes it to pound (I checked last night when I went to bed and it was 136).
I also have spider veins and my 'normal' veins are very noticeable, I am very pale but even still.
This last year I have gained 12lbs and am virtually inactive. I am hoping that my 'symptoms' are due to being unfit however I am too scared to get fit in case I have something wrong with me. I used to be on Propranolol for panic attacks but have come off them so was wondering if this could cause increased HR (although I have been off them almost 9 weeks now).
I am not losing sleep or anything over this as I know it is highly unlikely to be anything sinister, but I am worried almost everyday and I keep thinking what if eventually I just drop dead for something that could have been treated with meds? The only test I've had was an ECG in March 2013, which was fine but was so long ago.
